   Jan-06-19 G McCarthy vs M Kennefick, 1977 (replies)
 
Domdaniel: Maurice Kennefick died over the new year, 2018-2019. RIP. It was many years since I spoke to him. He gave up chess, I reckon, towards the end of the 80s, though even after that he was sometimes lured out for club games. I still regard this game, even after so many years, as the ...

Domdaniel: Kennefick died over the 2018-19 New Year. Formerly one of the strongest players in Ireland, he was the first winner of the Mulcahy tournament, held in honour of E.N. Mulcahy, a former Irish champion who died in a plane crash. I played Kennefick just once, and had a freakish win, ...
 
   Jan-06-19 Anand vs J Fedorowicz, 1990 (replies)
 
Domdaniel: <NBZ> -- Thanks, NBZ. Enjoy your chortle. Apropos nothing in particular, did you know that the word 'chortle' was coined by Lewis Carroll, author of 'Alice in Wonderland'? I once edited a magazine called Alice, so I can claim a connection. 'Chortle' requires the jamming ...

Domdaniel: <al wazir> - It's not easy to go back through past Holiday Present Hunts and discover useful information. Very few people have played regularly over the years -- even the players who are acknowledged as best, <SwitchingQuylthulg> and <MostlyAverageJoe> have now ...

Domdaniel: Wesley is a man of his word. Once again, I am impressed by his willingness to stick to commitments.
 
   Jan-04-19 G Neave vs B Sadiku, 2013 (replies)
 
Domdaniel: Moral: if you haven't encountered it before, take it seriously. Remember Miles beating Karpov with 1...a6 at Skara. Many so-called 'irregular' openings are quite playable.
 
   Dec-30-18 Robert Enders vs S H Langer, 1968
 
Domdaniel: <HMM> - Heh, well, yes. I also remembered that Chuck Berry had a hit with 'My Ding-a-ling' in the 1970s. I'm not sure which is saddest -- that the author of Johnny B. Goode and Memphis Tennessee and Teenage Wedding - among other short masterpieces - should sink to such ...

Dec-24-13  brankat: One usually deserves even more than just "an extra quantum" of punishment.

Happy Holidays my friend!

Dec-24-13  MostlyAverageJoe: <Domdaniel: <MAJ> Um, haven't you got places to be? Parties, etc?>

Yeah, I did, but breakfast and a short CG session could be squeezed in before other activities scheduled for the day.

And then, after coming back from a movie, I found another klu. Too bad I could not claim it any more -- it was a book.

  SwitchingQuylthulg: <Domdaniel> Merry Christmas!

<MostlyAverageJoe> It's no use us solving klus at this point :(

  Domdaniel: Argh, pipped on #61. Had the right name, Baldur, but there were 120 games to plod through.
Dec-24-13  hms123: <Dom> Yes, the treadmill is a medieval torture device that I use in the winter when going outside is even worse punishment.

Premium Chessgames Member
  Domdaniel: <hms> Yep, I've heard stories about outdoors. Don't much like the sound of it. It was a dark and stormy night here ... in mid-afternoon. You know, of course, that the treadmill was invented by Arthur J. Milltreader, who came to a horrible end on his prototype?

  Annie K.: It was a planet without an atmosphere; the colonists lived in a carefully sealed dome. They had one of the most fascinating cultures in the universe, thrilling events and flamboyant characters could not be avoided if one moved even 10 meters in any given direction. Entire libraries could be filled with the doings of these people on any day. Sadly, writing anything about them was out of the question...

They could never produce a single stormy night.

Dec-24-13  Alien Math: Have your browser able to use linkclump or MultiLinks or other open multiple links tools?

  Domdaniel: <Alien Math> Thanks ... I'm not familiar with 'linkclump' but I will try to investigate ... before December 2014, anyway. ;)

  Domdaniel: Two to go, innit? I've won two, been interrupted by phone calls while closing in on two more, and lost out on another two chases where I had the answer but wasn't fast enough.

Complain! Woulda been 5, if ... etc.

  Domdaniel: Christmas is a time for the National Elf. Amurricans may know him by his other name, Obamacare. Happy Thingies.
Dec-24-13  MostlyAverageJoe: Happy Christmas!

Since you mentioned elves and obamacare in one sentence, perhaps you should take a look at how the Santa's helpers are doing their job this year: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q41q...

  jessicafischerqueen: Season's Beatings!

I believe it's Guy Fawkes Day over in Ireland?

I can't be expected to keep up on the latest Irish developments.

Speaking of which, did you notice that <Flogging Molly> has now inhabited the ecological niche previously occupied by <The Pogues>?

I object to that last one :s

  jessicafischerqueen: Two days ago I told all my students that if you don't leave milk and cookies for Santa, he will kill you in your sleep.

"Really teacher?"

"Yes."

"Ooh-waaaa!"

ESL teaching kicks ass.
